its kind occurring in North America this year. The program offers a dual focus
on technical advancements in tissue making and market intelligence driving the
future of the industry.

- Noise cancellation material that blocks sound with the same effectiveness as 12 inches of poured concrete
- Improving fuel efficiency by 20% while at the same time reducing emissions by 40%
TissueCon’s overall program also features in-depth discussions around some of the industry’s most significant developments:
- Global and Business Insights – Covering international policy, global trends in manufacturing, and availability of natural resources.
- Softness – Covering what creates consumer perception of softness, including, chemicals (treatments), mechanical (creping, converting), materials used (fibers, wood type and recycled materials), and psychological (packaging).
- Modeling and Data Management – Covering the move from data collection to artificial intelligence (AI) and how it is significantly aiding producers in making real-time adjustments versus post-process analysis.
